The mechanisms through which microbes communicate using signal molecules has inspired
a great deal of research. Microbes use this exchange of information, known as quorum …

Excessive and indiscriminate use of antibiotics to treat bacterial infections has lead to the
emergence of multiple drug resistant strains. Most infectious diseases are caused by …

Quorum-sensing (QS) signalling systems of pathogens are central regulators for the
expression of virulence factors and represent highly attractive targets for the development of …

Quorum sensing is a system of stimuli and responses in relation to bacterial cell population
density that regulates gene expression, including virulence determinants. Consequently …

Aims: The purpose of this study was to search for a novel quorum sensing inhibitor and
analyse its inhibitory activity. Methods and Results: Quorum sensing inhibition was …

Quorum sensing is widely recognized as an efficient mechanism to regulate expression of
specific genes responsible for communal behavior in bacteria. Several bacterial phenotypes …

Bacterial quorum sensing (QS) is a cell–cell communication and gene regulatory
mechanism that allows bacteria to coordinate swarming, biofilm formation, stress resistance …

Bacterial biofilm formation can cause serious problems in clinical and industrial settings,
which drives the development or screening of biofilm inhibitors. Some biofilm inhibitors have …

Vibrio fischeri is a remarkable Gram-negative marine bacterium. First, it emits light when it
colonizes the fish or squid organs dedicated to this purpose. Second, it turns this light on …

Covering: 2009 to 2021 Antimicrobial resistance is now rising to dangerously high levels in
all parts of the world, threatening the treatment of an ever-increasing range of infectious …
